And we’re right there with him It’s been overeleven yearssincePortal 2was released, and it looks like the fans aren’t the only ones who are clamoring for Valve to start on a follow-up to one of its most beloved games ever. Erik Wolpow, co-writer of both of thePortalgames, as well as plenty of other famous Valve titles likeLeft 4 DeadandHalf-Life: Alyx, went on theKiwi Talkz Podcastthis week and urged Valve to start work onPortal 3, as originally reported byVGC....

Get ready If someone told me they were creating a newOutRunwith 3D graphics, I’d be extremely skeptical.OutRunwas not merely a raster racer through and through, it’s the God-empress of raster racers. I would think that adding some depth to that would hurt the appeal. Not so, becauseOutRun 2006: Coast 2 Coastis about as faithful as I could imagine. To be clear,OutRun 2006is sort of the sequel to the sequel.OutRun 2was released in arcades in 2003, and followed up with a port to Xbox in 2004....

I’m alive! This is all a miracle! I’m awake, I’m wiiiide awake! Dragon Ball FighterZhas undoubtedly been one of the most anticipated fighting game releases of 2018. The hype was strong for this as fans of theDragon Ballfranchise had been dreaming of a game that could match the anime series for quite some time. Past games have managed to fulfill some aspects of this, whether it be the flashy supers inBudokai, a fully traversable 3D map inTenkaichi, or even letting series fans live out their super dreams withXenoverse‘s character creation....

Getcha freak on The SNES Classic pre-orders have come and gone and the dregs left behind without one will be forced to scramble wildly, clawing desperately at one another like a depiction of hell in a Hieronymus Bosch painting for the scraps. I don’t want to make any wild predictions, but shit’s gonna be hard to get, and just like last year with the NES Classic, renewed nostalgia is going to introduce a whole new wave of people to retro game collecting (not to mention put more money into the pockets of Raspberry Pi manufacturers....

Terrible name, neat device I’m constantly reminded that we’re in a rather strange era of gaming. While past generations have decidedly kept console and portable gaming completely separate, the two experiences are converging more and more with the rise of Apple and Android devices. What were once privileged devices have become a lot cheaper, and they’re starting to dip into Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo’s profits as the mobile arena is poised to slowly start chipping away at the industry proper....

This sequel will focus on “a battle hardened veteran in his mid-thirties with a nihilistic point of view.” Way to connect with your audience, Activision! Siliconera managed to squeeze some script lines out of its anonymous source, but it’s all military jargon that doesn’t shed much light on narrative....

File this one under “saw it coming a mile away”. In the wake of EA’scancellation of the Madden series on PC, word on the street has it that the videogame publishing giant has also put an end to the PC version of their long-running basketball series,NBA Live. Sports gaming blogPastapadre has the scoop, though we’re being cautious for now because they didn’t provide any official source, and the story couldn’t be found anywhere else on the Internet....

With potential to be a verypromising indie horror game,Post Traumaintends to keep the classic tropes of the genre alive and well. With twisted visuals not unlike what we know fromSilent Hill, this tasty looking title will be grossing out our consoles and PCs this October. October 29, to be precise. As always when it comes to horror gaming, the Halloween period is typically a busy time for both AAA and more independent studios....

This week, it’s the T-800’s favourite, the Heavy Splatling Deco. The Heavy Splatling is the minigun of theSplatoonuniverse.
